NEW ROTARY YEAR

The 1st of July is when all Rotary Clubs across the world change their leadership teams and start their new Rotary Year.  In the case of Minehead Rotary Club we welcome in new President, Andrew de Mora.  Andrew has been a Rotarian since 2010 and came to Minehead Rotary Club from Brue Valley Rotary Club, where he was a founder member. But his involvement with Rotary started with Rotaract in the early 80's before moving on to Round Table gaining valuable experience in Community and International projects.

This year's Rotary theme is "The Magic of Rotary" and the club aims to use this theme to help our communities in and around Minehead. Food and Energy poverty are high priorities for the club as are homelessness, Young Carers amd Mental Health.

On the International scene putting and end to Polio and providing clean drinking water to those communities that suffer from not having access to clean drinking water are our priorities.

Recently we have established strong links with the "Rotary Club of Ndola", helping fund several projects in their local schools.  We will continue and expand our work in Zambia over the coming year.

Rotary is always in need of more members to help us provide and support the many projects we run.  Our club is open to all, and we have an active social side and will welcome any new individuals that come along to our fortnightly meetings on a Monday evening at the Northfield Hotel, Minehead.

By joining the 1.4 million Rotarians around the world you really can make a difference to so many lives.
